Hang in there everyone. I was finally directed to get induced last week, wasn't thrilled about it but wanted to do what was best. I would have been 41 + 2. Literally the night before I started to go into labor and had my baby girl 2 hours before the hospital was supposed to call me in the morning to tell me what time to come in that day. At the doc appt earlier that day, I actually asked the question if baby would ever come out even if I didn't get induced . The answer was yes of course but it felt like she'd be in there forever. Being patient is so darn hard especially if you and everyone else has been ready for so long . Anyway, I'm praying for a quick and easy delivery for everyone .
41+1 scheduled for induction tomorrow. I had an NST on Tuesday where there was one variable, and the doctor had me get an ultrasound, but everything was great with baby. She weighed 7 lbs 4 oz.
Had another NST on Friday and they kept me ob for an hour due to another variable. I was definitely having contractions.
Now I'm just sitting at home, pretty much given up on timing contractions. I know no matter what, we're gonna get this going tomorrow.
@samdags can you explain to me what you mean by a variable. I have my first NST tomorrow and I'm not really sure what the variable means you are talking about.
I am officially joining this group unless my little one comes in the next hour. My first was 8 days late and it seems like her sister may be happily following suit.
Joining the club as well as today marks 40+1. Going to call my doctor in a few hours to get some answers hopefully regarding whether or not we can induce before 41 weeks since he is on the bigger side and as to avoid a c-section if possible
Anyone else still waiting and going to end up with a May baby? My birthday is May 3 so my little one and I are going to be pretty close to sharing a birthday.
Scheduled induction today at 40+6, overdue! My DS decided today will be his birthday early this morning and I now have regular contractions! Praying for a beautiful birth today.
So, here I am finally in active labor! Im so thankful DS decided today was his day... These contractions are out of this world at 2 minutes apart. I am delivering at a local birthing center, completely natural and I'm so hoping my labor will end soon so I can hold my baby!! Wow these pains are unbearable. Wish me luck.
